Editors' Review

Mark Pinter's Jewels Pro involves matching three or more jewels of the same color to remove them all and score points, advance levels, and win extras like special jewels and powers. You're right: It's been done before and often. What makes this free but ad-supported Android game shine next to its counterparts? In two letters: HD. Jewels Pro takes the old favorite to new levels with high-quality 3D rendering and high-def audio.

Pros

Multimode: Arcade mode offers a fullscreen of jewels to match, while in Mineral mode you must mine as deeply as possible into the ground. There's a Timer mode, too.

HD with no bloat: Although Jewels Pro has high-quality audio, HD rendering, and banner ads, the total download was just over 6MB; nothing to get excited about.

Get a clue: Hints point out your next move when you've paused play long enough to tell the game you're stumped.

Cons

Resource-intensive: The downside of HD graphics is higher demands on your device. Our phone got a bit warm after a few rounds of Jewels Pro.

Bottom Line

It's hard to find fault with Jewels Pro, which has enough of a unique take on the classic game to set it apart from similar games, apart from its superior graphics. Sometimes the best games are also the easiest. But just because a game is basic doesn't mean it can't be challenging or can't look its best!
